So, someone “dissed” some images by Banksy by spraying some paint on it. You know what I hate? All vandalism. If the result is some kind of image, it doesn’t mean that someone doesn’t have to clean it up or pay for it. I hate to call it art of any kind, because that in [...]

Many people are talking about privacy issues on Facebook, and I agree with most of their points. I’m not unhappy with Facebook or any privacy issues, because I’ve always considered everything I do or say or put online to be 100% public immediately. I’ve always used my own name when signing up to any internet [...]

In my list of 50 goals and plans for 2010 I wrote “6.1 Write an album’s-worth of new songs and record them by the end of the year” which I’m interpreting as one song per month. Here is the song from “April” — meaning I didn’t write a song in April, and I’m now catching [...]

A year ago I made a post: “Why not listen to my entire iTunes music library, sorted by track name, and see how long it takes?” I actually listened to all the music in my library again last November and December, not sorted in any way, I just made sure I listened to everything within [...]

This graph shows the total number SFBRP episodes per month for the last two years. I noticed an upswing in the listener numbers recently, so I wanted to see what it looked like over time. Pretty good, I think! In April, random people across the world downloaded just under 25,000 individual episodes. That’s more downloads [...]

In my list of 50 goals and plans for 2010 I wrote “6.1 Write an album’s-worth of new songs and record them by the end of the year…” which I’m interpreting as one song per month. Here is the song from March. It’s called Out of Reach and Out of Sight. It’s been a slow [...]

Dubai! The city of stupid too-big buildings. Yay! I’ll write more about the buildings and the city itself in a future blog post. This one is about my trip to the dessert. I had two full days in Dubai, from the morning of the 4th of April to the evening of the 5th. The cruise [...]

Between 2001 and 2003 I released about a hundred videos on my old website, Luke Burrage’s Thing on The Net. I had to get creative to deal with the bandwidth drains of these videos, as there would typically be about 300-400 downloads per day, which is probably more than the combined views my videos get [...]

During my last cruise someone asked me: “When did you know you wanted to be a professional juggler?” I thought about it for a few seconds before replying: “Exactly ten years ago today.” Which, to be honest, is only half true. Ten years (and now ten days) ago I didn’t know I wanted to be [...]
